graduate opinion, 6n the other hand, has
passed through many phases.

At one time it was regarded as a hard-
luck prize to be given to the Senior who,
having had hardships, had borne them
bravely. Lately it was designated as a
reward for “faithfulness and efficiency.”

| “PIRATES” SHOW MORAL BEAUTY,
-SCORNING INTEREST FOR DUTY

Best Comic Parts Are The Deadly
Foes, Edward and the Pirate*King

®

Glee Club’s performance of “The Pirates
of Penzance” at Roberts «Hall, Haverford
College, on last. Friday and Saturday eve-
nings, was stipreme comedy. Roused by a
familiar and stirring tune in-the overture,
the audience caught the magnificent en-
thusiagm of. the actors for the. chortling
joys of Gilbert and Sullivan, and a “rare



good hymor” filled the theatre.
Even. pictorially considered, the pro-
duction was exciting. A native of Corn-
wall might have protested at the rather
cubistic rocky coast of thé” First Act;
but what a wild, rugged effect they
achieved! What pathos they gave to the
line, “We lay and wept upon the rocks!”
The Ruined Chapel was delightfully
Gothic in the eighteenth century sense,
with its trembling pillars and lovely rose
window. . It was very skillfully contrived
to create an impression of size and dark
hiding-places.

The costumes, too, deserve great praise

for their brilliant but harmonious color

scheme, their appropriate styles, and the
convinethg properties with which they

were equipped, real Gordon Dry bottles,
handsome pistols, and wicked knives.
The performance itself was excellent,
in spite of a lack of good, trained voices.
There was every evidence of fine training
and thorough drilling in the work of both

choruses and_ principals. With afew

RIGHTS OF MEN MUST REPLACE
OLD THEORY OF INDIVIDUALISM





Dr. Holmes Finds God in the Spirit of
Humanity, the Group Mind



“Democracy is in a period of transition
from the old theory of the Rights of
Man to the new theory of the Rights of
Men; from a reign of ‘liberty’ to a reign
of ‘law’,” said Dr. John. Haynes Holmes,
lecturing in chapel last Sunday evening.

In the middle of the eighteenth century
democracy entered the world. The idea
upon which it was then based was taken
from Rousseau’s interpretation of history,
from the notion that each man is pri-
marily interested in protecting his own
rights, and that in order to do so men
formed a social contract. Rousseau’s
reading of history was entirely fallacious

‘and unscholarly from beginning to end.

This old idea of liberty may be summed.

-up as being‘the right of the indi¥idual to

live out his desires, attributes, and‘ quali-
ties free from outside intrusion. :

We are now beginning'to see that such
liberty is impossible when men live to-
gether. Moreover though a Robinson
Crusoe on-a desert island could have all
the rights of man, he§ would never think
of them. — It is. onky when we have to ad-
just our lives to the lives of other men
that we think of liberty as an aim. At
that moment, too, limitations arid restfic-
tions are necessarily put on our rights.
We can no longer enjoy liberty on our
own terms. We must enjoy liberty on
the terms imposed by rother people. In
days gone by, when a man wanted more
rights, fe used to move out to the frontier.
Because there is no longer a frontier,.
people have grown restless. There will
be popular revolt until we learn to think
of democracy in terms of the will of all
of us.

Though perhaps the most Elizabethan
tendency of the undergraduates today is a
certain frankness and vividness of speech,
May Day celebrations were in good Eng-
lish Tradition. Vigorous dancing about
May Poles, rolling of hoops (involving the
cousummation of many interesting rela-
tionships), and a great many songs about
the spring, the “lude cuckoo,” and rising
early in the morning, changed the modern
efficiency of the working day campus to
a delightful Anglo-Saxon rowdiness. Tow

MERION TENNIS TEAM
DEFEATS BRYN MAWR



Charis Denison Wins Match While
Four Others Lose



The Merion Cricket Club, winning four
out of five matches, easily walked away
with the honors in the tennis played
against Varsity on Saturday, May. 2.

Beatrice Pitney, '27,
one on the Varsity team, was briskly de-
feated 6-3,-6-4, by Miss Anne Townsend,
who holds the thirteenth place in the na-
tional woman’s ranking. During the first
set B. Pitney -seemed unable to adjust
herself to the slashing, infallible gaine of
her opponent. In the second set the
match was less one-sided. The Bryn
Mawr. player was able to gain the offen-
sive for a short time, winning three of
Miss Townsend’s. serves by hard drives
down the sidelines, and passing her many
times -at the net.

Playing with dynamic force and energy,

'26, 10-8, 6-1 In the first set it was nip

-but D. O’Shea, although she seldom moved,

placed beautifully and thus outwitted her
opponent. Ffom the beginning of the sec-

Meeting of Alumnae Leaders With
Undergraduates Brings Pledges ~-

ALUMNAE SET



7.30 on Ménday evening Angela
Johnston, 26, President of the Under-
graduate Association, introduced _ the
‘undergraduates of Bryn Mawr, «gathered

such is not natural to Bryn Mawr) they? 1 the =pymmasittm—te—Mrs.—Louis. Slade,

chairman of the successful 1920 $2,000, 000
Endowment Drive to raise professors’ sal-
1925 $400;000 Fund to
auditorium and a
music department. At 845 the under-
graduates had pledged $31,000, $4000
more than ‘the quota’ promised in Feb-
ruary. Almost $200 a minute! o

Standing before a wildly applauding
audience, Mrs. Slade told the story of
the 1920 Drive, when other colleges set-
tng out for their own funds, looked to
Bryn Mawr to lead the way.

“With million dollars in
hands,” said Mrs. Slade, “the Trustees
reaized the pewer of the Alumnae. Then
we said we wanted music at Bryn Mawr.
We got it; but the time came when we
saw we could no longer merely hold
out our empty hands every year to sup-
port the Department. I came to Miss
Park and asked her if music was really
wanted here. She said to me: ‘Since we
have had music, it is as if we had been
in a dark place and suddenly someone had
opened a window and let in the sunlight.’
So we started the Drive.”

Mrs. Slade went on to describe the sac-
rifices Alumnae all over the country are
making for the fund, even though they
will perhaps never even see the audi-
torium. | :

“An Alumna who is earning $1900 a
year is giving us $100. Othgrs are pledg-
ing small monthly amounts for the next

aries, and of the

“But on the first of May,” continued
Mrs. Slade, “we found ourselves with ex-

But

we have $208,000; that means we
get $50,000 a week for four weeks.
I know we will succeed!”

The same sure confidence in the friends
of the college was expressed in Mrs. Car-
rol Miller's speech. When the final day
of the spring offensive comes, according
to Mrs. Miller, Bryn Mawr’s leading
Alumna in politics, President: Park, will
stand on the steps of Taylor Hall and like
Queen Victoria in the Pennsylvania
Dutchman’s campaign speech, - exclaim
with surprise: “Mein Gott! What a quota
that was!” >

Mrs. Durfee, of Boston, spoke for the
workers there. Then Mrs. Chadwick
Collins, Head of Publicity, gave the fig-
ures of the undergraduate contributions
to date, including $18.20 from the Lomas-
Lee-Saunders Bicycle Co. and $100 from
the ‘sale of sandwiches. She explained
that the estimate of $400,000 did not take
‘nto consideration the cost of furnishing
the building. She called upon the under-
graduates present to pledge the $9000
still needed for their sum as gallantly as
they had stood by the crisis of May Day.

While — applause. and singing rang
through the gymnasium, collectors rushed
about gathering in pledges for cash sums,
for $4 a month or $2 a month for two
ytars. Frantic arithmetic followed.

“$27,000,” announced the chairman.
“Make it a good round number.”

DIANA OF THE CROSSWAYS. .

Ancient tradition has it that the fates
of the gods, or rather, the goddessés,
are decidedly not responsibilities of man.
But New York authorities have differ-
ent ideas on the subject. In fact, the
future of a certain bronzed Diana, who
stands guard over Madison Square Gar-
den, has for a long time weighed heavily
upon their minds. Since Madison Square
is doomed to perish, it-is obvious that
Diana, too, must go—but where?



As the market is not exactly flooded
with Greek goddesses, the fair Diana
is not without many offers of adoption.
But after due consideration the powers-
that-be decreed that she should cast her
lot with the University of New York.
Hence, the years to come shall find our
lady gazing down from University
Heights on the caprices of ever chang-
ing generations of students. Twenty-
sixth street. may be deserted; crossways
may come and crossways may go, but
Diana seems to be here to stay.



NEW LEAGUE PROGRAM
SUGGESTED FOR JU. S$.

Another timid step sidling toward Unit-
ed States membership in the League!
This time the feeble chirp of public opin-
ion in the ear of a stolid government
takes the form of a program sponsored
by the League of Nations Non-Partisan
Association, suggesting to | Secretary
Kellogg, United States membership on
League Committees. We are already
represented on the Opium Committee;
why not extend our unofficial irffluence
to the Permanent Mandates Committee,
and the Economic and Financial Com-
mittee? In addition, the association sug-
gests adherence to the Permanent Court
of International Justice, and Registration
of United States treaties with the Secre-
tariat of thé League of*Nations. ©

This program, if adopted, would be a
ingenious
method of influencing*the League, and
enjoyirig its benefits, without joining, of
keeping our official noses elevated super-
ciliously, while our unofficial noses poke
eagerly into international affairs. This
excellent system will enable us to enter
the League in triumph after all the un-
pleasant work of organizing and estab-
lishing itself is finished—if by that time
the League cares to have us.

Vivid, passionate, courageous life fills
this autobiography of a “pick and shovel
man,” an immigrant, a thwarted wan-
derer over an inhospitable country, who
only after privation and suffering suc-
ceeds in becoming a poet. It is a very
old and trite story, the ‘struggles and rise
of a peasant from poverty to fame, but
a very fresh and fascinating one when
told earnestly and sincerely by one who
has actually experienced it. Angelo’s
vehement, courageous spirit fills this in-
formal account of his life, so that ‘his
occasional touches of melodramatic ges-
ture, of pride in his own achievement,
seem quite natural and innocent.

Naive and limited in.construction, his
style is rich and varied in imagery, color-
ful, vivid, and passionate. A few bold,
lurid phrases fix in our minds such inci-
dents as the death of the aged witch on
the heights of Monte Majello. Occa-
sionally a quaint humor relieves his earn-
estness, as in his tale of a newly-purchased
mandolin with which he “annoyed the
atmosphere.”

Scattered through the book are bits of
original poetry, stimulating and lovely, with
the same sweeping boldness of imagery as
his prose, the same unconventional and un-
tutored intensity as his life.

“The moonlight is a hailstorm of splen-

dor

Seeking in vain to be freed of its burden

D. LEFFERTS URGES SIMPLE
BELIEF FOR JOY IN RELIGION



e sd
Vesper Speaker Says the Spiritual De-
rives from Realities.

“Perhaps the easiest way of avoiding

the mazes of belief, is to avoid a compli-
cated system, and subscribe to as few
dogmas as is possible,” said D. Lefferts,
’26, speaking in vespers last Sunday night.
What you believe must be not what you
think you ought to believe, but what
strikes you overwhelmingly as right and
true.

“At any rate,” Miss Lefferts continued,
“I think the over indulgence in introspec-
tion and worry over one’s beliefs is defi-
nitely bad for one’s character and tem-

perament. One's religion is something

that should give spiritual pleasure, and

should not be so complicated. as to fog

We don’t need any more equipment than

something behind nature, if it is only the
sheer beauty of grass and trees? Remem-
ber what Plato said to the effect that one
in contact with beauty in redlities will
‘give birth not to images, but to very
truth.’

“From such sources as bent, love and

cesses, comes true spirituality, which is

NEWS FROM OTHER COLLEGES
(From the New Student)
Harvard Lampoon Suppressed.

The Harvard Lampoon is the second col-
lege comic to be suppressed in Boston during
the last month, °

The Literary Digest vam was swiftly
pounced upon by the police department
of Boston and Cambridge on the morning
that it appeared, Friday, April 18, and all
copies on newsstands confiscated. Two
violations of the law were charged: First,
the improper display of the American flag
on the front cover; second, for the display
of an obscene picture on the inside. :

The Lampoon parody closely resembled
the Literary Digest, so closely that the
police in their raid took copies of the origi-
nal Digest from a newsstand, The picture
on the cover was a parody of ‘ ‘Washington
Crossing the’ Delaware.” One of the men
jin the boat is feeding sugar cakes ‘to a
polar bear; another is reading the Boston
Transcript; while Washingtgn stands in
the centre of the boat with his little
hatchet in one hand. Floating on a cake
'of ice in the distagce is a sign, WEL-
COME TO TRENTON, Board of Trade.
The flag flying on the boat constitutes the
alleged desecration.
ture was “Sit Down, You're Rocking the
Boat.”

The “obscene” picture is a painting by
Manet which hangs in’the Luxembourg. |

Lampoon officials were apprised of the
suppression when two police captains’ en-
tered the Lampoon building..and_. forbade
further sales and threatened confiscation
of the issue. The members of the Lam-
poon board rushed out to the news-stands
and gathered in as many copies as possible
before the police could Wai, Moet of the
copies were saved.

The police conducted a thorough search
for the paper. One of the news-stand pro-
prietors declared that the agents raided
his place with the moronennest of prohi-
bition agents.

The raid started at 10.30°F vishal morning.
By. 11,30 the Lampoon sold for $1.00, and
hour later $2.50 and by the evening the
price had gone up to $8.00.

Both faculty and students at Harvard are
indignant over the action of the police.
Floods of legal advice are pouring into the
Lampoon office. There is a possibility of a
law suit.

Professor Felix Fraykfurter, - . Byrne
Professor of Administrative evel advised
as follows:

“I cannof believe that the Aampoon
will, not. contest this action of the police
authorities in the courts.” oreo nele

Professor Zathariah Chafee made the
following statement, pointing out ” the
futility of the police action:

‘I think it is absurd .to suppress cari-
caturés of well-known pictures.

“IT do not see any reason for guppress-
ing the magazine for the cover, if the
flag appears inthe original. The picture
on the inside is no more indecent thant the
original painting, by Manet, which has
doubtless been frequently reproduced
without objection. It would be well
worth while to get a counsel and fight the
matter out.”



A Modern Library. :
Students at Hunter College, New York,

believe that a thorough knowledge of the ©

literature of the present is just as impor-
tant as a familiarity with the classics. The
| Student Self-Government Association

has °



established a modern circulating library
where books can be secured at very low
rates. The deposit of fifty cents and the
rate of ten cents a week per book enables
the association to keep the library up to
date. Among’ the books available are Con-

rad’s Youth, A Lost Lady, Messer Marco

‘|Polo, A Passage to India, Mencken, Nathan,

Shaw, Betcovici, Galsworthy, Wasserman
and Van Vechten are among the authors
whose works appear. *

Three seniors supervise the library.
They spend a great deal of time in select-
ing the books. It is -believed that this is
the only library of its kind in any college.

Nashville to Have Little Theatre.

Ambitious students of Vanderbilt Uni-
versity, Nashville, Tennessee, are planning
a Little Theatre for the university and the
city. The plan is fathered by the Calumet
Club, a Junior-Senior Literary Club which
also sponsors the Masquerader, a comic.
The first plays are three one-act plays to be
produced in May.

Believing that Nashville is large enough
to support a Little Pheatre venture, the
Calumet Club is taking the burden of
starting the venture on its own shoulders.
They are gambling on the interest and
support of civic and’ dramatic organiza-
tions of the city after the venture had
been started.

‘CURRICULUM COMMITTEE’S

PAST AND FUTURE EXPLAINED

Undergraduate ‘Aupeciation Meeting:
Also Elects Treasurer



At a meeting of the se babies
Association on last Tuesday, in Taylor
Hall, M, Barret, ’28, was elected treasurer
for the coming year.

Virginia Lomas, chairman of the
Curriculum Committee, described the
history of the committee during the past
two years and its future policy. Organ-
ized in the spring of 1923 at President
Park’s suggestion, the group of under-
graduates, who were selected by the
Student Council, prepared and presented
to the faculty an elaborate report dis-
cussing the entire curriculum and advis-
ing such changes as a single major.
During 1923-24 the Curriculum Commit-
tee—continuedto—function,; consulting)
student opinion upon orals, discussing
with student presidents of other colleges
their curricular work, considering the
question of synthesizing courses for
Freshmen, etc. :

This year the committee realized that
_their work was really of no use unless
~~ definitely asked for by the Faculty Cur-
riculum Committee. Obviously there was
no point in submitting to the faculty, sug-
gestions upon subjects about which they
were not at the moment consulting. The
committee was only wasting its time, es-
pecially since the value of undergraduate
opinion, ignorant and_ inexperienced, is
likely to be small.

A méeting with the Faculty Committee
was therefore held in February, at which
the position ®f the undergraduate group
was discussed. After this meeting, a -con-
stitution for the Undergraduate Curricu-
lum Committee was drawn up by the
chairman and the president of the Under-
graduate Association. This was published
in the News two weeks ago.

1928 WINS ELMER HOBN FOR
. FIRST PLACE IN ARCHERY|—

eee ed

Millicent Pierce ’26 Rivals Last Year’s





es Woman Champion “
With ‘a score of 231 hits and 1155
points, 1928 won the Elmer Horn and

the first team archery meet which was
held on Saturday morning, May 2. 1926
came, second with a score of 237 hits and
1107 points, and 1927 third with 147 hits
and 661 points. The individual was won
by MM: Pierce; "26; with 69 hits, 407 points,
while P. McElwain, ’28, placed’ second
with 65 hits, 375 points, and M. Gregson,
28, third with 63 hits, 333 points.

The first event was the team shoot.
Of this Dr. Robert P. Elmer, former
national champion, has said, “The team
contest between the classes brought out
shooting of a quality fully equal*to that
seen at the national championship tourna-
Ynents.” Mr. William H. Palmer, another
ex-champion, ‘remarked that the form. as
a whole surpassed that of any other group
of-archers he had ever seen.

Dr. Elmer and Mr. Palmer were kind
enough to do a few minutes of exhibition
shooting which was greatly appreciated.
by the audience. All the archers next
tried their hand at shooting at a string of
floating red and yellow balloons. In a
short time only three or four were intact.

The most .exciting event was- the in-
dividual competition with nine entries.
Perfect form and accuracy of aim won
first place for M. Pierce, ’26; keeping a
steady level of excellent shooting, P. Mc-

PIRATES WIN: ENTHUSIASM |
OF AUDIENCE

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
exceptions the ¢horuses showed a remark-
able sureness of attack in picking up cues.
Their acting was delightful, especially the
skittishness of General Stanley’s Fifty
Daughters; the Pirates were inclined to
-assume-gentect characters as soon as ‘they
stopped singing. Much better was the
grimness of ine policemen “going to glory
and the grave.”

Of the characters, F. Thayer, "27,
sang beautifully and’ got the spirit of her
wart neatly, a very charming heroine in-
deed. The “orphan boy,” her father of
the languid white moustaches, as sung by
E. Parker, also had a lovely voice,
and showed fine diction. He was one
of the most amusing characterizations on
the stage, genteelly Sie just a little
peevish, :

Alice Matthew, ’27, as Frederic the
“slave of “duty,” was very attractive, espe-
cially in her scenes with Mabel, and in

IQn~
27,

the trio about “a paradox.” She, and
Alice Palache, ’28, as Ruth, a “Piratical
Maid-of-all-work,” were very funny in

their scenes together. Ruth, in fact, was
quite a gruesome old hag,

The best comic parts of the perform-
ance were Maris Constant’s Pirate Chief,
Richard, and Katharine Adams’ Edward,
Sergeant of Police. In stride, gesture,
and even moustaches, Richard was an
awe-inspiring figure. His song about a
Pirate King and his share of the trio,
“Away! Away!” were masterpieces. Ed-
ward could*not have been funnier. His
paunch, his walk, his trace of cockney,
and the little sob in his voice were. per-
fect. Undoubtedly he is one of Bryn
Mawr’s great comic creations.



The cast was as follows:
Richard, a Pirate -Chief,
Maris Constant, ’25

His Lieutenant,

Rosamund Tuve, grad.
Frederic, a Pirate Apprentice,’

The social relationship in itself has
rights. This is the theory behind the new,
doctrine of the: Rights. of Men. Whén
people come into contact, a new: being is
This
spirit is as real as the spirit of any man or
woman on the planet; it has, therefore, its
own rights. : 4

This spirit that comes out of the inter-
relationship of men is what Dr. Holmes
thinks of as God. “The only God I
know,” he said, “is the soul of humanity.
God is that social reality that springs out
of the brotherhood of man.” :

The task of the new democracy is to
vindicate the rights of this God, the rights
of the social whole as against the selfish,
lustful and rebellious individual.

nity Church of New York City. He is
one of the leading religious radicals of
the country.

winning her match. Her good stroke
and beautiful serve, the second ball being
as hard as the first, overcame Mrs. Watts,
who nevertheless played in nice form.
Forcing her opponent to the net, where
she never failed to miss, C. Denison would
win the point by placing hard in the cor-
ners and on the sides. There were few
rallies in the fast game.

Mrs. Weymouth succeeded in defeating
W. Dodd, ’26, 6-4, 7-9, 6-4, in a long,
hard back court game, which had many
rallies. Both players had good form and
placed well. Mrs. Weymouth’s beautiful
overhand stroke was successful the few
times she came to net. The game was
a long one, and in spite of W. Dodd’s
strong forehand drive, Mrs. Weymouth’s
superior endurance won the day.

In 1881 Edison shipped to the
Paris Exposition his “Jumbo”
dynamo—eighth wonder of the
world. It could light 1000
lamps. Now there are G-
generators large enough to sup-
ply current for over a million
lamps, each with four times the
candle-power of the lamp of
1881.
The General Electric Company
produces other electrical appa-
ratus which makes it possible
to transmit power over great
‘ distances. It has:put electricity
in seven-league boots. In its
laboratories, scientists are now
experimenting with voltages
ten times as great as the high-
est now in use. |

_ And he has lived to see it

Back in 1885, Thomas A. Edison succéeded in
transmitting electricity at 220 volts for one mile
—an achievement and a promise.

The promise was fulfilled a few months ago,
when electricity at 220,000 volts was transmitted

two hundred and forty

miles to supply Los

Angeles with light and power.

Now five billion dollars are invested in electric
power plants. A stupendous figure that testifies’
to the alertness of thousands of college-trained —
men who have been leaders in the production
and use of electric power.

@

The electrical era has only dawned. Each year
some new machine or discovery makes it possible
to apply electricity in unexpected ways. The
graduate of today will find electricity directly
or indirectly a means for even greater accom-

plishments, no matter what his calling in life _
